He&#8217;s obviously learned car control well. <strong>Not many people his age\u2014 or honestly much, much older\u2014could successfully pilot the car around the snow-covered track with as much style and control.<\/strong> We bet he had a great time while the Monticello Motor Club filmed the video.<\/p>\n<p>In all likelihood, he&#8217;s the son or relative of the owner of the car. He honestly, looks a little nervous in the video, but then again, we&#8217;d be sweating, too, if we were in his place. <strong>Our hats come off to him, and to Monticello Motor Club.<\/strong> Any initiative to get more young people in cars learning proper driving skills is welcomed.<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" title=\"14 Year Old Drifts 2018 Ford GT On Snow-Covered Racetrack\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OFpbcE6Uibg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"14 Year Old Drifts 2018 Ford GT On Snow-Covered Racetrack\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OFpbcE6Uibg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Will Make You Nervous If you&#8217;re looking for a video that will make you extremely anxious, then the one included below is it.
